That shingle is tough. My legs were like jelly when I got to West Bexington. The summer route was under water when I went throught, so I also had to stick to the beach.
I did look back on a video I watched before starting the coast path and they were in ankle deep mud on the summer route. Portland has a few diversions on the start of it when you get up on the cliffs that are not signposted very well Paul. I bumped into a local walking his dog that took me on a back route around them.
Good stuff Andy. I did enjoy the jokes about the shingle. Just wait till you get to Chesil Beach there is a bit of Shingle there. I would definitely recommend doing some walks in Scotland. There are many stunning places across the mainland of Scotland and the Isles. As a starter/taster have a look at Loch Ness 360° Trail or John o’ Groats Trail. The secenary in places is absolutely stunning.

Scotland is on the cards for next year serg.
Loved the humour on that shingle. I'm looking forward to doing that bit.... not.
It wasn’t pleasant, but a bacon roll and a brew at the cafe was a god send.
